How Chocolate Ia Made.

Chocolate" said u confectioner, sis
made from beans that grow in pods
on the tree. These trees are
numerous in the West Indies, and it is
from there we get our supply. The
beans are brought hither in the pod
and put through q regular manufacture
ing process to produce the chocolate
cakes that we use. The first operation
is the breaking Of the husks and separ-
ating them-from the kernels by a blast
Of air. Then the beans are ground with
sugar by revolving granite grind
stones. The stones are heated, and the
oil contained in the bean makes the
mass adhere and become a thick paste.
This pulp is now partly dried and the
air bubbles are squeezed out in a press
|and it is transferred to the cooling
tables. Here it is beaten and worked
by hand to produce an even texture
and a fine grain. Then it is placed in
molds, q blast of cold air is turned on,
and in q few moments the beautiful
glossy tablets 'nished.
'The Brit rnment has recent
ly directed t.. .ucolate be served
two or three times II week in the army
and navy. In confectionery the Paris
ians exceed us in the number of prep
arations of chocolate. We use it in its
natural flavor only, while they mix
and other favors with it,
until there is no end to the combin-
atoms they produce. In England
much of the chocolate is adulterated.
Some recent tests detected flour, starch,
potato, lard, chalk, bran, and old sea-
biscuit in 81 ~cimens offered for sale"

One thing highly creditable to Mr..
C~leveland's Administration, is the eff
ticient and economical management of
the postal business of the e%ountry-in
fact, there is a fair prospect that this
branch of the public service may be
made self sustaining for the first time
i'll its history; indeed, there is a prom
Use that it may be made a source of
Government revenue. This state of
affairs is really surprising Is it is
gratifying, when it is remembered
that for a number OF years past the an
nual deficits of this department have
range from eight to fiji cen million dol
lars. For the year ending June 30,
leS6, the deficiency vas $500, 900,
but tina! / ,ast leW was only about
100000 lur Ihe past fiscal year the
satne reduction has been going on, so
that 1t is lI babe That on June 30,
1857 the deficiency was not over one
million dollars. 1t is estimated that
before the close of the present year the
postal business will he IA profit 20 the
Government. This great Federal De-

Jefferson, when president, had q
workshop fitted up in the basement Of
the capitol, where with the assistance
of q colored man, he made articles of
furniture, now priced by their owner
He also made models of his inventions,
generally impracticable, and an Eng
fish iron founder and machinist, Mr..
Foxhall, used to discuss them with
him.
Among Mr.. Jefferson's pet models
was one Of an air tight stove, and Mr..
Foxhall was astonished how such an
idea could have originated in the mind
of a person who had spent his life in a
state whose almost illiIaitable forests
furnished a superabundance Of fuel,
but an inspection Of the design aud
its workings amazed him still more.
Mr.. Jefferson claimed that his stove
would economic fuel and generate a
continuous, genial. and uniform heat,
and was highly sanguine on these
special points. Mr.. Foxhall, not alto
gether convinced, proposed to cast a
stove at his foundry. which he did.
Mr.. Jefferson ordered a dozen or more
in iron. which were delivered to him in
a short time. He had two or thre of
them set up in he white house and
presented the others as precious gifts
to his friends, giving n to Mr.. Fox
hall, who placed it In his office, which
it never warmed. This is said to have
been the original invention of air
tight stoves, improved by Orr. 1t was
made of cast-iron. was five feet high,
and weighed $50 pounds. 1t was di-
vfded into two compartments and
there was a central chamber about six
teen inches square for the fire, ,u"
rounded by other chambers to rrr"a'"
the hot air, an ingenious idea, a.,-
did not, however, work satisfactorily.

Russian BrougPs.


The Russian sculptor cares nothing
for nymphs and naiads, or classic nudi-
ties of any kind. The graceful treat
ment of draperyand the sensous sweep
of contour are nothing to him. He
never aspires to classical ideals, draped
or undraped, and therefore has no need
for severity of form, or an exhaustive
knowledge of anatomy. The customs
and costume of his country are with
him III all this. The primary instinct
of his race still clings to the Russian
artist and in sculpture, asin painting,
he is most at homein treating incidents
of the chase or the battlefield. In
such themes his love of detail DIFF
ferentiates him from the sculptOrs
Of the West, and his delight Is
in absolute realism. From swords
and spears TO buttons and straps, every
detail about man or beast is rendered
with religious exactitude Here, for
example. in Gratchof's Before the
Battle" we see q mounted Cossack,
terrible in aspect, with his sabre in his
mouth. pistol in one hand and a rifle
in the other, straining eagerly toward
the enemy, as his horse plunges along.
I'm this group the minutiR of the mans
uniform and the trappings of his steed
are most faithfully rendered. This
comes out all the more forcibly when
We turn to the companion group,
called After TIE Battle" which repre-
sCnts the same trooper returning with
the spoija Opimd and leading his
enemy horse, which neighs forthe loss
of his master. The same remark applies
To- this artists Cossack' S Farewell, in
which we see him STOPPING down from
the saddle to kiss his wife In the
"Return. the Cossack has dismount-
ed and kissed his wife, while the
horse ncighs as be recognizes his ap-
proach to home. No less true and
spirited are Professor Lieberichs
Wolf aud Fox Hunts, and his con
ficts with bears. In one OF the latter
the bear has broken the gun of the
hunter and risen on his hind legs to
give him the fatal hug; but the man
buriCs his knife in the cntrails of the
Infatuated beast, and one wonders
whether its ripping mp will be sufficient
to release him. I'm the fellowgroup
the bear has got an oil man down,
Int his son stands by with an
axe in the act of delivering vigorous
blow at the brute's head. Professor
Lieberich, the author of these works,
used to accompany the late Emperor in
his hunting expeditions, and to some Of
the stirring episodes represented i'll
bronze be- himself has been an eye-wit-
ness. But war and the chase are not
the only sources Of Inspiration; the
Russian finds abundant materials in the
peaceful scenes and movements of do
mestic life to employ his modelling
tool as vel. rs his pencil. Indeed. like
rome nations whose art education is
more advanced, the Russian is apt TO
let the art, overlap each othcr-that IS,
allow one branch TO ovcrstep its OWL
peculiar province aud trench on that OF
its neightor. Apainting may be scu!p-
turesque il treatment, just as sculpture
Lay be pictorial.
